Which forearm bone allows us to rotate the wrist?
There are 8 small bones in wrist joint.Proximalrow contains (From lateral to medial side.) ScaphoidLunateTriquartal and Pisiform bones. Except Pisiform other three are attached to lower end of 'Radius' bone. Please note that in 'elbow' joint Ulna bone takes part and in wrist joint charge is handed over to Radius bone. Distal row contains Trapezium, Trapezoid, Capitate and Ham-mate. So if you ask about the single bone, then the answer is Radius and not Ulna bone. But please remember that 'single' bone can not form a joint. There has to be at-least two bones. Here lower end of Radius comes in contact with three bones. Scaphoid, Lunate and Triquartal bones. Pisiform is a sesmoid bone. On distal side there are carpal-metacarpal joints. There are 5 metacarpals attached to four carpal bones.

Only an x-ray can determine a fracture.
